Longitudinal MRI identifies associations between cognitive decline, inflammatory markers, and hippocampal subregion volumes in individuals with knee osteoarthritis [PDF]
Communications MedicineBackground Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is common in older adults and may relate to cognitive decline. We explore whether changes in specific brain areas and body inflammation levels help explain this connection, focusing on the hippocampus-a memory ...

Two-component system GrpP/GrpQ promotes pathogenicity of uropathogenic Escherichia coli CFT073 by upregulating type 1 fimbria [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsUropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is a major cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs). Invasion into bladder epithelial cells (BECs) on the bladder luminal surface via type 1 fimbria is the first critical step in UPEC infection.
